MAJOR RISK OR ROSY OPPORTUNITY: Are companies ready for climate change?
CDPThis report analyzes responses from companies to CDP’s questionnaire in 2018 and
focuses on what companies are reporting about the risks and opportunities they may face
from climate change and its potential financial implications. With 2017 and 2018 seeing
significant losses from extreme weather incidents in parts of the world, as well as rapid
technological shifts taking place in certain sectors as a result of the transition towards a
low-carbon economy, financial regulators and investors are becoming increasingly focused
on ensuring the private sector is ready for the risks and opportunities of climate change.
